neoplasm
• mice exhibit increased penetrance and accelerated acute leukemia development compared to single Tcf3tm1(PBX1)Mlc conditional mutants

hematopoietic system
• preleukemic mice show a greater decrease of immature B cells of the Lin-CD19+CD43- fractions compared to Tcf3tm1(PBX1)Mlc conditional mutants, indicating a more severe block of B cell differentiation at this stage of maturation
• preleukemic mice show expansion of GFP+ progenitor cells of the Lin-CD19+CD43+ fractions at younger ages compared to single Tcf3tm1(PBX1)Mlc conditional mutants, indicating accelerated preleukemic progenitor B cell expansion

N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• mice die 1-2 weeks after macroscopic changes appear (ie. domed skulls); life expectancy of such mutants is 58 days; mice that do not show this phenotype survive at least 12 months and are fertile

skeleton
• 47% of mice show dome shaped skulls by about postnatal day 50

craniofacial
• 47% of mice show dome shaped skulls by about postnatal day 50

behavior/neurological
• mutants spend less time in the center in open-field tests, suggesting increased anxiogenic-like behavior
• in a novel open-field test, mutants with dome-shaped heads show significantly increased locomotion (likely due to the novelty aspect), as mutants appear lethargic in the home cages

nervous system
• 47% of mice
• prominent, varying mild to severe
• in most severe cases, medial structures between ventricles are deformed and compressed, as represented by vertically relocated hippocampi
• ventricular dilation might be result of obstruction of interventricular connections, increased CSF production by ependymal cells of the choroid plexus, or decreased CSF resorption by arachnoid villi
• other ventricles do not show enlargement
• cortex surrounding lateral ventricles is markedly thinner than in controls
